点评:VERY few attractions contain a warning that you may be boiled alive if you stray too close!
San Kamphaeng Hot Springs is one of them and with good reason.
Geysers spout, pools bubble and swirl with steam and it is easy to see why a false step could be fatal.
But tourists will be tourists and the frisson of fear caused by wooden signs warning that beyond this point temperatures reach more than 105C only seems to encourage them to take a dip.
That is because a concrete "stream" containing run-off from the hot springs has been carefully graded.
Signs show just how hot it is at what point and when I sat down and took my trainers and socks off I was just the right side of 45C.
That was plenty hot enough for me and for the first few seconds I wondered if I had made a terrible mistake.
Fortunately my legs acclimatised themselves and it soon became very pleasant sat there on the side of the stream under trees, watching large numbers of other people doing the same thing.
Toilets are situated towards the back of the site and are clean and well kept while there are commercial opportunities to do everything from buying a cold bottle of water to buying eggs to boil in the hot springs.
Well worth a visit and make sure you bring water or buy some. A lot of sweating is involved with this place!

山甘烹温泉就是其中之一,这是有充分理由的。
间歇泉喷涌,水池冒泡,蒸汽漩涡,不难理解为什么一个错误的步骤可能是致命的。
但游客就是游客,木牌警告说,超过这个温度,气温将达到 105 摄氏度以上,引起的恐惧似乎只会鼓励他们去泡个澡。
这是因为包含温泉径流的混凝土“流”已经过仔细分级。
迹象表明天气有多热,当我坐下来脱掉运动鞋和袜子时,我的温度就在 45 摄氏度的右侧。
这对我来说已经足够热了,在最初的几秒钟里,我想知道我是否犯了一个可怕的错误。
幸运的是,我的双腿已经适应了,坐在溪边树下,看着大量其他人做同样的事情很快就变得非常愉快。
厕所位于场地的后面,干净且维护良好,同时还有商业机会可以做各种事情,从购买一瓶冷水到买鸡蛋在温泉里煮。
非常值得一游,一定要带水或买一些。这个地方涉及很多出汗!
